    @virginmedia any chance you could hire call centre staff that don’t hang up the phone after 3 seconds in an attempt to bring their AHT down?

  • ASJPhotography
    Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia have to be the MOST unhelpful when it comes to customer service. I’ve been going round and round and round for an issue your technical engineer has already highlighted!!!!

  • iamj_armstrong
    James Armstrong (@iamj_armstrong) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t an outage. I have been told it may be a line fault but the hub was fine yesterday afternoon

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Sorry, I don’t understand how posting on a forum will get me in contact with someone who can help me. The customer service isn’t good enough.

    Virgin media must b the worst 4 customer service.. change ur engineer appointment without even discussing it!!! #virginmedia #theworstcustomerservice

  • nghudson
    Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from West Bridgford, England

    Managed to finally pay @virginmedia off and get rid of them for good. Absolute shysters and the worst customer service you’ll ever be unlucky enough to encounter. You won’t see me again unless things drastically improve.

  • pdenno
    Paul Dennison (@pdenno) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia why call me twice today, tell me I am a valued customer (22 yrs) and offer me a broadband speed not yet available in my area!! Once again a waste of my time and yours. I would feel more valued if you call and offer me a small saving on my monthly bill! 🤔

  • alextiplerfilm
    Alex Tipler (@alextiplerfilm) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia You don't have internet access yet you are on twitter? Can you not get someone to ring me. I am stuck on hold, 16 minutes now, waiting to resolve your issue!

  • portergill

    @virginmedia any known problems ng11 area. I can’t run a test it keeps failing, internet constantly dropping out tonight. Problems on and off for about a week now

    @virginmedia helping out my 74 year old mother, when she resigned with you at Christmas, you also promised to send out a new V6 box, it never arrived, I chased this up and then you sent an older TiVo box. I spoke to the guy and he told me they're the same !?

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia I know I recently extended my broadband contract with you but the service is abysmal and the customer service even worse. Can I cancel please and I will go back to Sky.

  • dergal
    Gerry White SEO geek (@dergal) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia I tried - I assume it doesn't work on a mobile!?

  • robhollanduk
    Rob Holland ⚽️🏐 (@robhollanduk) reported from West Bridgford, England

    Shocking customer service from @virginmedia this week for mobile account setup for my son. Didn’t port his number over on Monday as promised & then agent hung up on me when I rang today to complain. I wasn’t abusive and I didn’t shout, but I do expect my complaint to be taken

  • iRacing74
    DJ Knight 🇬🇧 (@iRacing74) reported from Sandiacre, England

    With public service cuts, why do we year upon year pay more Council Tax for less service? Virgin Media put their prices, but do not reduce my service - If they did I'd cancel the service. We are legally obliged to pay more for less - go figure 🤷

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Forget it. Totally useless all round. Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. What’s the point having a social media team?!

  • jonathansc
    Jonathan SC ن Esq. (@jonathansc) reported from Wilford, England

    @virginmedia To seem to pick live football for your outages - is this a coincidence ? As you understand by frustration - what are you doing to reduce the frequency of loss of service ?

  • NFFCDaz
    Daz_NFFC 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@NFFCDaz) reported from New Basford, England

    @virginmedia you're putting the prices up and all we get is crap service, please come and collect your equipment, ill no longer need it.

    @virginmedia @taylur41 Does @LutzSchueler know how bad your customer service is

  • IPSiara
    Ian Siara (@IPSiara) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia can you explain how your customer services line was working up until the point I told you I wanted to leave, and since then you've cut me off 3 times in a row?

    My fave thing about @virginmedia is nothing. No WiFi for 4 days. No WiFi = no tv. Been fobbed off for days. Each day promising it’ll fixed by the end of the day. Only to turn around today and say only an engineer coming to the house can fix it. I want out of this contract.

    @virginmedia Open a complaint which doesn’t get replied too. Phone calls promising a follow up call which doesn’t happen. Terrible customer service
